For a spin-off that's not even a stealth game? Really? So then, to use the Wii as an example, you would rather have Umbrella Chronicles than Resident Evil 5, Extraction than Dead Space, Rayman Raving Rabbids than Rayman 3, etc. It's a spinoff that's not even in the same genre. Would you be excited about Dragon Quest Swords multiplat to 360 but Dragon Quest X still Wii exclusive? Of course not. FFXIII was a big deal. This is not.


Well put,

as for your comment "...that's not even a stealth game", that is my one disappointment about the game. I will be playing this game regardless, but I will be somewhat choked if the game is just a NG2 Clone. Plus, with God of War and Devil May Cry as well, I really don't need another action brawler.

I was hoping for a game with Cyborg Raiden as the main character, but I was also hoping that it would remain a mix of stealth/action. Maybe something akin to Tenchu in its glory days...but better. Although, maybe Konami will keep some stealthy elements in the game and not just the "Lightning Bolt Action" stuff...time will tell of course.

As for biggest loss, my vote still goes to GTA4 being a simultaneous release, Sony could have really used the boost in North America. At least with FFXIII they keep Japan and the potential that some people will opt to buy a PS3 since they will want to play Versus as well. (assuming the latter doesn't go multi)

But FFXIII was still a biger deal as you said when compared to this.

I'm rather amazed at the bickering that goes on because of this game. It must be important. This game and Forza 3/GT 5 have taken over the site.

Don't forget the Alan Wake vs KillZone 2 craze



 



i dont want to look like a whining fanboy, but as for now the main series has been exclusive to ps3. and i still believe personally that mgs5 will be ps3 exclusive.

Well MGS5 is an exclusive... just not a PS3 one...

I'm really put off buying this game aswel. Don't get me wrong if it look's good and there's nothing else to play around that time then I'll get the game but building it to suit the Xbox mean's less disc space and less creative idea's and creative idea's was 1 thing that really made the metal gear franchise. If MGS4 took up a whole blu ray then what's MGS rising gonna be like. A downgrade.

Does your rhetoric make you happy? You realize that MGS4 only took up a whole bluray because they burned up the extra space with uncompressed audio right? which is like filling up a CD by playing 45 minutes of silence before a 2 minute hidden track.

Absolutely nothing suggests the game will be downgraded for the 360. If anything, you'll get the same experience with shorter load times on the 360, like most multiplats.

Oh right and your saying this because you worked with kojima making the game? So why isn't MGS4  possible on the 360 then and how come they are building a new engine for MGS rising. Bottom line is Xbox doesn't get Snake, it's not gonna be a stealth game and if Kojima ever does decide to make a MGS5 it would be a PS3 exclusive. So who's getting the wrong end of the stick. Oh and your comment about slower loading time's is only on multiplat game's that were ported to the PS3. All that's gonna change soon

I'm saying that because it's common knowledge. Why isn't MGS4 possible on the 360? Simply put, it is. Saying it isn't is semantics. It was optimized for the PS3, but if they felt like putting the time into making it look exactly the same for the 360, they could have.

As for comments about slower load times, you are guessing, apparently, because that's simply not true. Even games with PS3 as the lead platform tend to load faster on the 360. Not only that, but a number of games with mandatory installs on the PS3 load faster than their 360 counterparts with no install. There are 2 reasons for this 1) The high tech bluray drive is simply not as fast at transferring data as the DVD drive in the 360, and 2) the 360 has more RAM available. And neither of those issues will be changing anytime soon.



Before people kept on saying they don't need the mgs on 360 now they can't stop hyping the rising.

Rising is just a spinoff of the mgs4, you need to buy a PS3 and mgs4 to know the whole story and first thing I thought when they announced rising as multiplatform was that they're clearly trying to attract people getting ps3 & mgs4 on it.

@jesus don't get your hopes up, he might have meant the whole franchise or just rising. We never know until we hear about the next mgs-game.



well im not realy intrested in MGS:Rising for three reasons:1....Hideo Kojima isnt working on it
2....its a brand new team
3....Doesnt sound as if it will be stealthly which is what the series is about



"They will know heghan belongs to the helghast"

"England expects that everyman will do his duty"

"we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender"

 

Let's wait till we get more info on the game before we pass judgment.
